Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview was 45 minutes long. The interviewer asked me to introduce myself and asked some behavioral questions. We then moved to the technical problem. The question wasn't very difficult, and I quickly coded the brute-force solution, but I couldn't think of the optimal one and answer the follow-up questions.

Questions

The technical problem was followed by questions like:

"What if your input was different?"
"What if your input number was the maximum integer allowed?"

Was this helpful?
